There are so many Kingdom principles that don't make sense, and yet work. God can do more through a moment of obedience, than we can do in a lifetime of professional work. Imagine being an expert fisherman and toiling all night without any luck. Then along comes a rabbi. He tells you how to do a... Continue Reading →
I read this scripture today in my search for verses about how much God cares about me. Not just me, but people in general. The last part of the scripture just leapt of the page. "His holy people (that includes me) who are His rich and glorious inheritance." I am God's inheritance. I have pondered on that little fact... Continue Reading →
I was watching a television show the other night and there was a protest going on. On one side people were yelling at the police for not doing enough. The other group of people were yelling because the police were interfering. In the middle stood the police standing to protect those who are fighting against them and acting as a shield to...

I was listening to Matthew 16 on the drive to work: 21 From then on Jesus began to tell his disciples plainly that it was necessary for him to go to Jerusalem, and that he would suffer many terrible things at the hands of the elders, the leading priests, and the teachers of religious law.

There is a safety that comes from trusting in the Lord. A safety that is not easily shaken. Knowing that not only can He protect you, but knowing that He will protect you - there is safety there. Despite having been in some dangerous situations, I have never feared for my personal safety when with... Continue Reading →
Searching. I spend a lot of time searching. I search for things I have lost or misplaced. I search for things because I can't remember something. I love to search for information and resources. I am the go to person for "Can you find...?" or "Do you know....?" I can get lost in the search of... Continue Reading →
The book of Luke (Luke 1:5-25) begins with a story that I can relate to about double-mindedness. It is the story of a Jewish priest Zechariah and his wife Elizabeth and their quest for a baby in their old age. From the story, it is apparent they had been praying to God for a child. One...

Tucked away in the Old testament book of Judges are three chapters that share the highlight reels of a Israeli judge name Gideon. Gideon was from the smallest clan in Israel and when God called him, Gideon was threshing wheat in a winepress to hide his wheat from the Midianites who were ruling the land. Like many...
